The path to parenthood is different for everyone.
For some, it’s straightforward; for others, it involves complex decisions, medical treatment, and, at times, unexpected loss. At Deloitte, we understand that supporting our people means recognising and responding to the full spectrum of experiences - not just the milestones, but the challenges along the way.
Our approach to reproductive health is built on flexibility, empathy, and practical support.
If you’re undergoing fertility treatment - whether it’s IVF, egg freezing, or IUI - Deloitte provides up to five days of paid fertility leave each year (pro-rated for part-time employees).
This time can be used for attending procedures, recovering from treatment, or managing side effects - without having to dip into your annual or sick leave.
We know how demanding fertility treatment can be, both physically and emotionally, and this leave is one way we aim to ease that burden.
If you’re supporting a partner or loved one undergoing fertility treatment, Deloitte’s Wellbeing Leave (Carer’s) or DeloitteFlex policy may be used - because supporting someone through this process matters too.
Experiencing a pregnancy loss is incredibly difficult. Whether the loss is early or late in the pregnancy, Deloitte offers time, space, and support to help you begin to heal.
If you or your partner experiences a miscarriage, you can take up to 10 days of paid miscarriage leave per event, pro-rated for part-time employees. This leave can be used however you need - to rest, to grieve, to seek medical care, or simply to not have to explain what you're going through.
For cases of stillbirth, Deloitte provides up to 18 weeks of Paid Parental Leave, including three days of Compassionate Leave.
We also offer access to unlimited counselling and return to work support.
Reproductive health - including fertility struggles and pregnancy loss - has too often been kept in silence. At Deloitte, we’re working to change that. Through open conversations, and resources available to all team members, we’re making it safe to speak up and seek support.

Our fertility and miscarriage leave policies are part of a broader commitment to family wellbeing at Deloitte - which includes:
Because your career and your family plans should never be in conflict — and you shouldn’t have to choose between caring for your family for and your career growth.
